Nope, Autodesk Maya. It relates to blender as a church organ relates to a harmonica. (You CAN play anything you can play on a church organ on the harmonica as well, and it might be equally good music, but...)

Okay I've got the basic frame done besides needing to wield them together. Now I ask ye peoples, what shall I decorate it with? First off heres the diagrams of it, he back plate is a pickaxe that is about 16" tall and 12" wide on the pick and the beam goes out about 20".

As ye can see in the second picture I'm thinking about putting a dwarf and B12 between the beam and the supporting arm and I'm putting spikes on the end of the beam with one curled enough to support a sign. I still need something to go on top of the beam and an actual sign to hang. I was thinking of making a sign that said either dwarf fortress or strike the earth but my teacher said that there might be enough room on top to put dwarf fortress on top which still leaves me out of a sign.

Well the pickaxe and the frame has already been made, I figured the pickaxe would fit better *shrugs*. Still I'm trying to make this like and artifact and may try to send to toady if I get the chance. Ima try to make a stand for it so it can be placed on a table or something for the gatherings (I might make it so the stand makes the pickaxe look like a crossbow).

it's not an artifact without engravings of itself on it, and spikes and rings and etc

It didn't seem quite dwarfy and I needed somewhere to put a pickaxe, mayhap a situation may arise that I might try your design but I think I might only beable to do the backplate in that case.

Okay I moved the topic because I relized this would be the proper sub-forum for this kind of topic, I'm rather surprised noone said anything about it. I've also changed the title to broaden the spectrum into metalworking so that other people posting metalworking stuff is more relavent and hopefully turn this into a metalworking discution. My current project is still the sign (probably will finish or come close to finishing this friday) and suggestions of what should be the upper gusset are still welcome as I have no real idea what I want to put up there still.

Okay the project has progressed and the frame is wielded together though I didn't have enough time to grind the wields down yet. I've also gotten the spikes made and are ready to be wielded in. Pics below
